Course Overview

Learn To Ride + Level 1
PLEASE USE YOUR CHILDS NAME AND DOB TO ENROL

This course is aimed at children who are unable to ride a bike, aged 4-10 years old.
Children will learn in small groups to be able to balance, start, stop and make the bicycle move safely.
If this is achieved, they will then be taught the Level 1 National Standards Cycle Training Objectives.

Level 1 will be taught and assessed on the Monday using the Road Safety Centre’s road training layout.
This includes:
• checking your bike and your clothing,
• making sure your helmet fits.
• getting on and off the bike,
• starting and stopping safely,
• controlling your bike, and
• be able to control the bike while signalling and looking back

Training is carried out in a traffic free environment.
Eligibility: Any child that is unable to ride a bike aged between 4 and 10 years.
